Summary

Madison-Grant Junior/Senior High School is a public school in Fairmount, Indiana, serving about 453 students in grades 7–12 as part of Madison-Grant United School Corp. For 2025–2026 it ranks 263rd out of 415 Indiana high schools (37th percentile, 2 stars) — an improvement over last year's 1-star rating, but well below the 4-star results it earned in 2022–2023 and 2023–2024.

Completion and attendance are the school's clearest strengths. Its 2024–2025 graduation rate of 98.8% is far above its district (75.0%) and the state (89.7%), and is the highest among nearby schools with data: Wes-Del Middle/Senior High School (98.0%), Mississinewa High School (97.7%), Alexandria-Monroe High School (95.8%), Marion High School (92.9%) and Elwood Junior-Senior High School (90.9%). Chronic absenteeism of 8.1% is likewise the lowest nearby, versus 16.5% to 39.0% at those same schools and 16.7% statewide.

Academics are mixed. On 2025–2026 state tests, the school's all-grade proficiency was 33.33% in English/language arts and 29.41% in math — above district averages but below state benchmarks, and SAT results are the main weak spot: 39.66% proficient in reading/writing and just 13.79% in math, compared with statewide figures of 51.9% and 25.6%. Biology scores are stronger (43.04%), second only to Wes-Del locally. Notably, low-income students were the highest-ranked reported subgroup (50th percentile), while other reported groups ranked lower, and in 2023–2024 every reported subgroup scored much higher — suggesting the recent dip has touched multiple groups. The school spends less per student ($10,253) than every nearby traditional high school and serves a smaller share of low-income students (49.89% free/reduced lunch), so its strong graduation and attendance record stands out, while its weaker test scores are not explained by larger classes or higher local poverty.
